Multiresistant Acinetobacter baumannii ventriculitis

JBNC - JORNAL BRASILEIRO DE NEUROCIRURGIA, 2018
Among Gram-negative bacteria, Acinetobacter sp. has become an important nosocomial pathogen due to the increase in the number of multiresistant strains, and this species is responsible for a growing number of postoperative infections with a high mortality rate. The occurrence of multiresistant Gram-negative bacteria has led to an increase in the number

Infection Complications in Pediatric Patients With Inborn Errors of Immunity After Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation: A Chinese Single‐Center Study

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This study reveals that infections are highly prevalent in pediatric IEI patients after umbilical cord blood transplantation, with early‐stage infections and bloodstream infections strongly associated with poorer survival. These findings advocate for risk‐stratified surveillance and preemptive strategies in high‐risk subgroups.

Serious Bacterial Infections in Hospitalized Neonates in Eastern Ethiopia: Investigating the Emerging Pathogen Pantoea dispersa Compared With Klebsiella pneumoniae

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Serious bacterial infections (SBIs) are major contributors to neonatal morbidity and mortality in low‐income countries. We describe the aetiology and risk factors for neonatal bacteraemia and in‐hospital mortality in eastern Ethiopia, focusing on Pantoea dispersa, a rarely studied pathogen, and Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Pathogen‐reduced platelet concentrates in France: Impact on the risk of transfusion‐transmitted infections, 2017–2024

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Pathogen reduction (PR) using amotosalen‐UVA was implemented for 100% of platelet concentrates (PCs) in France in November 2017. No bacterial testing was in place earlier. The impact of PR on the risk of transfusion‐transmitted infections (TTIs) from November 2017 to December 2022 (vs.
